Fawn S, I'd test the maternal uncle. Which test depends on the goal. If you want just his surname only, do a Y-DNA test. If you want a broad overview of all his lines, back about 200 years from his birth, do Family Finder. If you want both, order a combination kit.
Family Tree DNA will have a Holiday Sale. They have it in December and sometimes they start it as early as November. They never tell us what will be on sale, but they usually have a variety of products. If you have someone on the paternal side to test (either a paternal uncle or paternal aunt) that would be a plus too. -- Cheri Mello Listowner, Azores-Gen Researching: Vila Franca, Ponta Garca, Ribeira Quente, Ribeira das Tainhas, Achada -- For options, such as changing to List, Digest, Abridged, or No Mail (vacation) mode, log into your Google account and visit this group at http://groups.google.com/group/Azores.
